Dunno, but if you scroll down to the bottom and roll-over where it says United Kingdom a drop down list will appear with other countries.. Although Canada isn't there :/

Bit of a change up from what it was before. Just bought myself the LG IPS234V display! I was worried 23" would be too much of a step up from the 18.5", but I find myself used to it after just a day or two. There is also a few laptops that I'm working on behind the second monitor... as well as a plush bumble bee that was gifted to me

Computer is still the 6 core Acer M3400.

Here's my custom build. Set up for games only (via Steam), I use my iMac for real work.

Radeon HD 7950 3GB
i5 3.4 GHz quad-core and 8GB RAM
1 TB HD 7,200 rpm and optical drive
Asus 24” LCD VW246H monitor
Windows 7 Home Premium
Logitech G500 mouse and SHARKOON Skiller Keyboard
AS Rock PRO4-M motherboard with Cooler Master Elite 430 case and CORSAIR Builder Series CX600 600W

In all her glory. My T410. I know this is sacrilegious, but this Thinkpad is the best computer I've ever owned, never a hardware problem, never a software/Windows problem, never a virus. I've been very very very impressed. I do wipe it clean every 6 months though with a fresh install which helps a lot. Can't wait for another Mac one day though. This machine has done everything I've asked it to and more. Never even a power shortage when running 4-5 Vm's at once with Windows itself working hard. I'd love to test drive an i7 MBP though. I bet I'd be even more impressed.

And, how about a pic?!

I have always used Apple computers (except for a period in 1986...with the Amiga), but back in the late nineties (96-97) the dark days of the Macintosh platform took place, so i used a Wintel system with WebObjects for a little while. Worst experience ever (Windows 98) and i switched quickly to a Performa.

I never looked back.

But that G4 has to be the most beautiful computer you've ever owned... right?

Yes it was. till I sold it.

The only Windows computer in my house is my HTPC. Runs Windows 8 (for fast booting), with XBMC as the front end. I do all the controlling of the HTPC using the remote that came with my TV (using a PulseEight USB CEC adapter)

The box itself is an Intel NUC DC3217IYE, mounted to the back of my TV.

Windows 8 (I use a script that bypasses metro)

XBMC, with Aeon NOX skin.
